Preliminary Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A Estimated Shareholder Distributions, page 68 1. We note your revised disclosure regarding the recent macro-economic headwinds that cause the company to believe it is unlikely that the net proceeds distributed to the shareholders from the plan of sale will fall within the upper portion of the Estimated Total Shareholder Distributions Range. We also note that the Estimated Total Shareholder Distributions Range does not reflect the costs and liabilities relating to the August 9, 2022 settlement. Please disclose whether any material changes in Seritage s operations, performance or in any of the assumptions and estimates upon which the company based its Estimated Total Shareholder Distributions Range have occurred since the range was determined or that are anticipated to occur before the shareholder meeting.
